Sureshot Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Hello all,This is so lame....I have spearhead and got past level 1 and started on the snow level. That was 2 months ago and then I had to reinstall the game. I now can't get past the Tank vs Flak88 on level 1 after you have assassinated the Colonel. I have managed to hit it 4 or 5 times on just about every part of it and still no joy!! It is beging to drive me mad and give me a severe complex about my game playing abilities......well no its not that bad!!But for the sake of my sanity can anyone help me get past this stupid part of the game?? :( Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Is this the Tiger Tank? Where it blows a couple of holes in the wall?If so, I don't know what to say.. it only took a few shots for me.. You could always have a look at the walkthrough and see if that's any help - if not, you could always cheat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted March 18, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 I get to the gun and hit the pillar which destroys the two portions of the wall. I then have the opportunity to hit it twice before it disappears. I hit it on the turret, the side, the tracks, the ass, changing it for each attepmy i have.I then hit it square in the turret 3 times as it returns and it only smokes!! What the hell do I need to do???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Don't know what to suggest - just played through this bit again, all I did was destroy all the three walls in front of me, and the wait until the Captain drew the tank into my line of fire... three shots and the tank was no more....Most odd.

Sureshot Posted March 18, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 when the tank returns it fires twice and the second shot kills the captain, this happens right as I am about to shoot it for the third time after its return. 5th in total. It only smokes!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 You don't have to shoot the tank as it's going off screen, just make sure that you blow up the wall in front of you and the one on the right. Try to hit the tank as soon as it comes back, and you can see it in the hole where the right hand wall used to be.You should be able to squeeze of a few shots before the returning tank kills the captain.

Sureshot Posted March 18, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Thanks for the help anyway, GhostI guess I just need to keep trying!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 18, 2003 Report Share Posted March 18, 2003 Ho hum...If you're really stuck.. as in really... I'll save my game after I've blown the tank up and email it to you?What difficulty level are you playing on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Ghost of Inept Pig,Thanks for the offer, that would be great as a complete last resort though!!I still have some hair left to pull out so I might get back to you on that!I am playing on Medium at the moment B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Hello again,I just wanted to include some pics from this level and wondered if you have ever experienced these problems, GhostThe first clearly shows the tank making a break for it to a higher altitude, and the second shows the tank submerging slightly in the ground!!!I think this have something to do with it but not sure.I have 512Mb mem, 64Mb MX440, and DirectX9 with win2kp41.09 driver Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Here you can see the tank's tracks have slightly sunk below the platform Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mundy Posted March 20, 2003 Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Sureshot- impressive pic... I've heard of pigs that fly, but tigers? wow. :lol: Have you installed any mods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 20, 2003 Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Lovely pictures you've got there...The second one doesn't look too bad at all, although it's probably better to have destroyed the tank at this point in time...I know of a console command that affects the strength of gravity, you've not been fiddling have you? :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 The only mod I have installed has been the Akuma Blood Pk but no other sneaky mods!certainly not any gravity stuff.Ghost, I may need to take up your offer of advancement only to relieve my madness you understand!!

Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 20, 2003 Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 It's understandable.... Flying tanks are regarded as one of the signs of madness... it's true, I read it in a movie once...I'll sort out the save game for later on, using the wrong computer at the moment....

Sureshot Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Ghost,Thanks for the offer. whenever you are able to would be much appreciated.Can you let me know how to insert it into the game aswell, if poss.Also why does my profile say windows 3.1 when I have XP home? <_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 20, 2003 Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Righty, I'm off to switch computers and unleash untold terrors on certain tanks, for the good of your sanity...Have you patched the game to the latest version - 2.15? As that's what I'm running and it may cause trouble if you're not too...I'll tell you how to insert it into the game too, as I'm kind like that... Once I've switched computers that is...The Windows 3.1 thing is a measure of how many posts you've made, the version changes the more you post...

Sureshot Posted March 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Yes I patched the game just after the patch was released.I figured that out about the postings as soon as I clicked add response, D'Oh!! :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 20, 2003 Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Right, here in a handy .zip folder is the save game you require...To insert this into the game, simply unzip the files to:C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\mainta\save\unnamedsoldierIt will over-write your quicksave game.** I've removed the attachment now, as I don't think anyone else is going to have the need for it** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sureshot Posted March 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 Ghost,That worked a treat. The tank finished in a different position from the version I have!Anyway, thanks for the help.I'm sure I have come across you in multiplayer mode b4!Jolt server i think? :ph34r: thanks againbye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ghost of Inept Pig Posted March 21, 2003 Report Share Posted March 21, 2003 Not a problem, now go forth and finish the game! (Not that much left... it's a very short game...)I tend to get around a bit on the old mutiplayer front, so it's very possible you've seen me about - I go by the name of Commander Pig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
